Introduced by Richard Baker
In the third of this season's recordings from the Henry Wood Promenade Concerts, the BBC Symphony Orchestra is conducted by Sir Charles Groves in a performance of the ever-popular Mendelssohn Violin Concerto in E minor, Op 64, with Iona Brown as soloist, and the Suite from Hindemith's serene ballet score Nobilissima visione, about the life of St Francis of Assisi.
